@TheocharousH @IsraelMFA And now you have the audacity to sell those on trial in international courts for occupation, looting, and war crimes as 'lawful visitors'.

45 million Americans alive today will die of Alzheimer's, and they have no idea it can be reversed.
A 2025 clinical trial found 90% of people in the treatment group improved their mild Alzheimer's, with a few fully recovering.
This is the full breakdown of the study:🧵

This is the full breakdown of the study:🧵
Dr. Bredesen is one of the lead researchers of this study, who has spent 30+ years studying Alzheimer's.
He's most known for the ReCODE Protocol, the first program to publish cases of reversed cognitive decline.
He led the study with Drs. Toups, Hathaway and more across 6 clinics.

He led the study with Drs. Toups, Hathaway and more across 6 clinics.
The trial enrolled 73 patients with mild Alzheimer's.
• 50 got the "precision intervention protocol"
• The other 23 got standard care, meaning Aricept or Namenda plus regular check-ups
The average age was 65, with 46 women and 27 men.
Both groups were balanced for age, sex, and genetic risk.

Six UK Prime Ministers since 2016.
A seventh incoming.
Average tenure has collapsed from roughly five years to under eighteen months.
Most coverage asks why individuals keep failing.

Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak, Starmer. Two general election losses in that list.
The rest were removed by their own parties or resigned under internal pressure.
The mechanism isn't the electorate.
It's party discipline collapsing under its own contradictions.

Truss lasted 49 days after a mini-budget crashed the gilt market. The fastest removal in British history, and the clearest case: markets, not voters, ended that premiership within weeks.
1/ The destruction by Ukrainian drones of two of Wildberries' massive warehouses near Moscow is a huge disaster for the Russian economy, which will inflict far more damage than the headline $1.2 billion loss of stock. Here's why. ⬇️
2/ While Wildberries itself can absorb the loss of two of its biggest warehouses – it will not need to compensate sellers as it has very recently disclaimed responsibility for losses caused by enemy action – the impact of the strikes on the wider economy will be significant.
3/ Wildberries is frequently called the 'Russian Amazon', but it has a far more dominant role in the Russian economy than Amazon does in Western economies. Since it was founded in 2004, it's become one of the most structurally important companies in the Russian economy.
A family paid $139/year for Amazon Prime for 5 years.
They got free shipping. They watched a few shows on Prime Video. They figured that was the deal.
$695 spent. Two features used.
Their cousin a former Amazon operations manager who spent 6 years inside the fulfillment and pricing engine came over for Thanksgiving dinner and asked to see their account.
She scrolled for 90 seconds and said:
"You're paying full price on items that dropped 30% last week. You're missing free grocery deliveries. You're ignoring a free music library with 100 million songs. You've never once used the secret coupon system that's hidden on every product page. And you're sharing this membership with nobody when Amazon lets you share benefits with another adult in your household for free."
She opened their laptop and changed 11 things in 14 minutes.
Their next order saved $40. Their Whole Foods bill dropped by 20%. Their kids got free games and books. They cancelled Spotify.
The dad said "I thought Prime was just fast shipping."
She said "That's what Amazon wants. The less you use, the more they profit. You've been paying for a $3,000/year membership and using it like a $10/month delivery pass."
Here's every feature she unlocked and how to set each one up 🧵

Clip the hidden coupons on every product page
Most people never notice this.
On thousands of Amazon product pages, right below the price, there's a small orange checkbox that says "Clip Coupon."
It's not loud. It's not flashy. Amazon doesn't want it to be.
One click and the discount applies automatically at checkout. 5%, 10%, sometimes 40% off.
She said: "Amazon buries these in plain sight. They count on you scrolling past them. Before you buy anything, look directly below the price. If there's a coupon, clip it. It takes one second and saves you real money on nearly every order."
Also bookmark amazon.com/coupons. It's a dedicated page of every active clippable coupon on the site. Most people don't know it exists.

Turn on Subscribe & Save (and stack it with coupons)
This is where the real savings start compounding.
Subscribe & Save lets you set up recurring deliveries on household staples paper towels, coffee, diapers, shampoo, vitamins. You pick the frequency: every 1 to 6 months.
The base discount is 5% off.
But here's the trick she showed them: if you have 5 or more items in a single monthly delivery, the discount jumps to 15% off every item.
And you can stack a clipped coupon on top of that Subscribe & Save discount.
She said: "Keep 5 cheap anchor items subscribed year-round toothpaste, dish soap, things you'll always need. Then rotate in whatever has a coupon that month. After it ships, skip or cancel. No penalty. No fee. You hit the 15% tier every single month without overbuying."
They were overpaying on basics by $30-40/month. Gone.

🛰 Significantly more damage is visible at Muwaffaq al-Salti Air Base in Jordan.
The base was not struck by a single missile but by what appears to have been a large, highly accurate salvo.
Another hangar on the ISR/CAS apron was hit, while a major impact is visible in the troop housing area where U.S. service members were killed.
Several additional drone/aircraft shelters were destroyed, including areas where U.S. MQ-9 Reapers have previously been spotted.

At least three or four hangars used to house U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drones at 31°49'52.80"N 36°47'28.77"E inside Muwaffaq al-Salti Air Base in Jordan were completely destroyed during Iranian ballistic missile strikes carried out between 17 and 19 July.
Around two dozen Containerized Living Units (CLUs) appear to have been destroyed or damaged in the Iranian missile strikes on Muwaffaq al-Salti Air Base.
This is the area where two U.S. service members were killed and a third was reported missing.

Hydro tends to ramp up during high-demand hours in the morning and evening, leaving the rest of the day free to be powered by wind and solar

1/ A viral post claims Brian Hooker, PhD, established that the only Amish people with autism were children vaccinated before being adopted—and that there are “zero” cases among unvaccinated Amish-born children.
He established no such thing.
The clip being recirculated in July 2026 comes from a July 15, 2025 Senate hearing. Hooker’s written testimony identifies him as the chief scientific officer of Children’s Health Defense.

2/ The story is largely recycled from journalist Dan Olmsted’s 2005 “Amish anomaly” columns.
Olmsted went to Lancaster County, asked local contacts whether they knew autistic Amish people, and emphasized an adopted child who had previously been vaccinated.
That might generate a hypothesis. It cannot estimate prevalence or establish causation.
There was no representative sampling frame, comprehensive case-finding system, standardized diagnostic assessment, matched comparison group or verified individual exposure history.
“I did not find them by asking around” does not mean “they do not exist.”

3/ When researchers actually screened an Amish population, they found autism.
From 2008–2009, clinicians went door-to-door in large Amish communities in Ohio and Indiana and screened 1,899 children ages 3–21.
Twenty-five screened positive. Fourteen completed comprehensive assessment, and seven were confirmed as having ASD using the ADI and/or ADOS plus clinical judgment.
The preliminary observed prevalence was approximately 1 in 271.
That estimate has important limitations—but it is very clearly not zero.
